Constraints

Identify the Constraints

• MUST attempt to identify: team size, timeline, technology, budget, business model, and target audience
• MUST evaluate quality relative to constraints, not against an ideal with unlimited resources
• A strong design under tight constraints demonstrates more taste than a mediocre design with unlimited time
• SHOULD note where constraints were handled gracefully and where they caused visible damage
